How to paint a lamp tutorial:

First, you will need to do a little bit of prep work. Be sure to clean your lamp with Dixie Belle’s While Lightening so that your paint will adhere to the surface properly. Then, tape off all the areas on the lamp that you don’t want to cover with paint.
Next, use your Dixie Belle Round Paint Brush to apply a coat of the color Drop Cloth to the lamp. Let this coat dry and apply a second coat, if needed. PRO TIP – Lightly mist your brush before you begin painting for a more professional finish.
Finally, once both coats are dry, apply a coat of Dixie Belle’s Gator Hide top coat. Then you can remove the painter’s tape and use your “new to you” lamp!
